Kada te umore ulice duge
u nekom gradu negdje daleko
kad se u srcu sakupe tuge
kad i tebe ostavi neko
2x

Ref. 2x
Sjeti me se, sjeti
zelja nek poleti
u zagrljaj meni
i ti za njom kreni

Sjeti me se, sjeti
ko druga, ko zene
u zivotu niko nije
preci ti od mene

Kada te umore pijane noci
u svijetu punom laznoga sjaja
kad vise ne budes im'o gdje poci
kada budes dos'o do samoga kraja

Ref. 2x

Sjeti me se

Hajrija Gegaj's 'Sjeti me se' stands as a defining anthem of Yugoslav folk music, capturing the raw emotional depth characteristic of the region's post-war musical landscape. The track exemplifies the genre's fusion of traditional folk melodies with contemporary pop arrangements, a signature style that Gegaj helped popularize across the Balkans. As a lead soloist, she delivered this recording with a voice that conveyed both vulnerability and resilience, resonating deeply with audiences during the 1990s. The song remains a staple in the regional repertoire, often performed at weddings and celebrations, reflecting its enduring popularity and its role in preserving cultural identity through music.
